Seahawks blow out Commanders as Jayden Daniels suffers arm injury | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

Five words or less time. The Seahawks beat the Commanders 38-4. I’ll give you the floor. They are Super Bowl contenders. Well done. Right. I wasn’t sure. There’s a lot of syllables there, so that was confusing. That’s true. We’ve had an issue. Five words versus five syllables. Somebody thinks the word words means syllables. So, you’re good. Uh, yep. So, but but I and I’ve said this to a few people, right? Just like on, you know, we both go on talk radio around the country and they go, “Hey, what’s one team that, you know, nobody’s thinking about to say watch out, right? The the the Seattle Seahawks are that team for me to go like I know everybody looks go, oh yeah, they’re six and two, but I don’t think everybody’s quite giving them credit for as good as they are.” I think that’s what jumps out to me. Seattle to me with what you’re seeing them do on the offensive side of the ball. Their O line plays better. Sam Darnold’s on fire. Jackson Smith and Jigba is actually qu making me question whether he’s not the best receiver in football. That that’s how good he is. I’m not saying he is, but he’s in there with Puka and Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson. There’s no denying it. There’s none. He’s incredible that way. Their defense, you know, I wax poetically about their defense. I like their defense. It’s ass kickers everywhere. They got a big physical front seven. When their secondary is healthy, which you got closer to last night, it’s a special secondary. Their coach special on the defensive’s side of the ball between Mike McDonald. That was a butt whooping last night. And Seattle is a team that I say, “Yeah, watch out for because I just feel like they’re going upwards on a big way.” Absolutely. And what what a race it’s going to be in the NFC West with the Seahawks, the Rams, and the 49ers going away either. uh for the commanders for me. I had it and now it slipped out of my brain. The season is over. Is that it or is that Did you just bull crap that one? I did. I had another one and I forgot about it cuz I was thinking how beautiful those Seahawks uniforms look and it got me distracted. Why is it that so many teams have throwbacks that are better than their regular uniforms and they don’t just make them their regular uniforms? Well, I I had this conversation a lot yesterday. First off, Washington should wear those uniforms all the time. the best they looked in forever. Okay. And I and again, you know, so Okay, but but I think like it’s what it’s rooted in. Seattle, those uniforms were rooted in losing, right? That that’s the big thing. So it’s that’s why they changed it, right? Like the Orange crush in those uniforms in Denver, they were great, but they were rooted in we lost four Super Bowls in those uniforms, right? New England. Bill Parcels, I know that was one of his first things when he went there. He was like, “Hey, these red jerseys with Pat the Patriot. He’s a loser. We got to get him off. We got to get Elvis the we got to get Elvis the Patriot on there, right?” And he changed it. So, it changed that way. But yeah, then there’s some teams like the Giants where I go, “Wait, we won two Super Bowls in those uniforms and we changed it and went to the other ones. I don’t know why we did that.” And then they won two and they won two again as well. Right. And then they wore those abominations last year for their hundth season. Yes. Right. Right. But but either way, we like the unis. I feel bad for the Commanders. Look, you’re going to lose games. And I think Mike Tico was saying this last night. If this was a game that had been tucked into the cluster of one o’clock Eastern games on a Sunday, you just say, “Ah, you know, you can’t win them all.” Yeah. But when you see it on a national stage, it’s jarring. Like the Vikings 37 to 10 loss. And it makes people think that there’s something seriously wrong. And we’re in the car getting ready to come back from the studio last night and Matthew Barry said, “Should they trade Debo Samuel? They’re going to be three and six.” It’s like, well, you know, in 2012 they were three and six and they they ran the table and they made it to the playoffs. Like I don’t think they’re wired to give up. No, I don’t think they’re wired stunk that year. But but what happened was two plays later, Jaden Daniels suffers the dislocated elbow. Then it’s like, well, you know, yeah, I would trade anyone now. like it’s over now. Well, you’re not going anywhere without Jaden Davis. They’re going to be questioned with everything. They have the oldest team in football by by a significant margin. Any expiring contract or any contract they’re going to tear up after this year should be shopped and potentially traded. Von Miller, I was saying last week, if you’re not going to use Von Miller, whose snap rate per play was higher than Michael Parsons, they’re just playing him one out of four plays. Trade him to a contender. Yeah, trade him to a contender. He could be a possible guy. I don’t know, Debo. Like, what are you gonna have to trade for him and pay him? Like I don’t know if that’s going to be like it’s I don’t know if the teams are going to love that. Right. Annie’s got available though. Anyone’s available. I maybe they will. They maybe they will. But yeah, they they got issues. And again, their their team I’m not shocked to see them not capitalizing here. You know, I was one all year long that never thought they were going to be quite as good as they were last year. They had a horseshoe up their ass and a rabbit up their ass last year. Everything fell right perfectly for them. Plus, they had, you know, the new coach energy bump. what you’re seeing. But the defense stinks. It stinks. And they don’t do very much on that side of the ball. Nor do they have that many great players. They, you know, and and they took some chances on some older guys. Marshon Latimore, Ivon Miller, Javon Kinlaw, Castoffs of other teams not working. Offensive side of the ball, right? Yeah, we got Terry McCorin. We run the ball good. We got Jaden McDaniels, but it’s not necessarily scary that way either. And they give Debo Samuel more money. And we’ve discussed a lot over the last few years. Debo Samuel, he has a hard time getting open against man-to-man coverage. He’s a good gadget guy, but he’s not your like, oh, it’s third and 10. Debo Samuels definitely going to get open against one of the best corners in football. So, yeah, they got questions on their team. And poor Jaden Daniels, that wasn’t good. And that’s what people worried about with Jaden Daniels coming out in the draft. Is he too frail? Is he too skinny? And here’s his second injury of the year. Let me say this because we talk all the time, I know I do, about the importance of quarterbacks protecting themselves because one of the great cliches and cliches are cliches because they are true. Your best ability is availability. And for a franchise quarterback, you can’t be a franchise quarterback if you’re not available to play on a regular basis. It has plagued Tuatong Aloa throughout his career. It is an issue. Just because JJ McCarthy emerged from one game healthy doesn’t mean that there’s not going to be this recklessness. I was saying last week, you have to understand how your body fits in space with 21 others. And you have to find ways to avoid contact. It’s all about avoiding contact because the more you avoid and the more you take, the more you take, the greater the chance that that one extra hit is going to be the thing that injures you. Jimmy Garopolo on the sideline being a meatthead week three of 2018, dropping his shoulder, tears his ACL. RG3, his first game ever with the Browns against the Eagles, drops his shoulder at the sideline and messes it up and he’s out for weeks. Like, you have to know when to get down, when to get out of bounds. And it extends to your head coach because the coach has to know when to get you the hell out of the game. Yeah. The coach has an obligation to protect the quarterback. And Dan Quinn, this is going to be Dan Quinn’s 283. When when it’s close, there’s going to be a year coming up when it’s close, right? It’s going to get him fired. It’s going to be lingering just enough unless like obviously everything goes great and you win Super Bowls, you’re fine. But this is that thing he’s not going to be able to wash off and he should have had Jaden Daniels out of the game Thursday night. Both coaches should have had Lamar Jackson and Tuonga out of a 28 to6 game. You need to know when it’s over and you need to get your key players, your starting quarterback the f off the field. The starting quarterbacks are too important to your team. They’re too important to the game. Jaden Daniel should not have been out there and and Dan Quinn deserves every bit of criticism he’s going to get. Oh, you can’t live in your fears. Well, yes you can. Todd BS got roasted last year for having Chris Godwin in a game late. That game was still in the balance. The Bucks were trying to come back on a Monday night against the Ravens. This was done. There’s no 31point plan in the final seven minutes of a game. It feels like they were just, you know, playing a game in which they were let’s just make the score. Let’s make the score look better for the new It’s the old It’s the old newspaper. when they at the end of the year when the owner looks at it and go they go, “Oh, we didn’t lose that game that bad.” And it’s like, “No, no, you got your ass whooped and you were worried about your own politics here for the job and everything else and that’s why you kept it to 3821. 38 21 looks better than 387.” Exactly. Right. Yep. Feel bad for him. But yeah, I mean, I’m I’m confident in saying it’s over for the Commanders. Marcus Mariano is a really good backup. Um, but I just don’t see enough there. And especially that defense, it’s it’s stinky. They still play the Eagles twice. It’s just done. It’s done. All right. Hi, it’s Mike Florio. Thanks for watching PFT on YouTube.

Jayden Daniels’ gruesome injury cast a pall over a game that showed the Seahawks are a real contender and essentially ended the Commanders’ season. #NBCSports #NFL #ProFootballTalk
